Office of Children and Family Services

The Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS) maintains the Statewide Central Register of Child Abuse and Maltreatment. In maintaining the Register, OCFS deploys staff around the clock to operate a toll free telephone number. In our prior audit report 2001-S-34, we examined the controls over overtime payments for Register activities and identified controls that needed to be strengthened. In our follow-up review, we found that actions had been taken to implement all the recommendations contained in our prior report.
